Okay, treading delicately off-topic... The road from Huntington to Kaiser is initially smooth and wide, then becomes extremely narrow and mosty-paved. By the top, you're dealing with sand and gravel. From there onto Florence or Edison, it's rough in many spots - but could be ridden on anything from 23mm racer tires to phat Jack Browns, up to whatever would fit. Watch out for potholes, sand, gravel, rocks, and most of all... yahoos in bloated frigates hogging the road, especially on the return, where you're often left with NO shoulder and a steep cliffy dropoff.
I might could do it on my QuickBeam with the 19 tooth rear, but would probably be happier on the LongLow with its six-speed rear cassette. Both have Jack Browns. - Andrew, Berkeley On Friday, September 6, 2013 10:56:42 AM UTC-7, Mike Schiller wrote: > > So Andrew, slightly off topic, but what do you think of the road to > Florence lake for cycling?
